Mr. Randall Horton is the number one teacher to take for History. I'm taking him for HIST1302 for mini-mester, and I have a 97. All you have to do is read, study and believe you will pass. There isn't any extra credit provided, but without it, I believe you will do well.

I was never good at History of any kind, Professor Horton gives a clear and detailed, yet funny and interesting lecture! He's always available outside of class (i.e. email) to clarify any questions you may have. Participation and accountability matter greatly to him, but if you notify him in a timely manner of your absence he is also understanding.

Prof Horton is the only History teacher I've ever had who taught me something new. Incredible guy, funny, gives new insights and context into events, encourages you to go research if you're interested in something. Take notes, pay attention, and show up to class. He will tell you everything you need to know, but it's your job to study and know it.

Goes into detail on lectures and makes sure everyone understands what's going on. You can easily get an A+ if you pay attention during class and study just a bit. He plays a lot of videos for more visual learners throughout some of his lectures. There were very few tests throughout the semester (excluding finals). 10/10 both semesters were amazing.

If you look through his notes and his power points (which he gives you) you're guaranteed an A on his exams. His class fills up quick, so register NOW. Good luck :)

Encourages doing your own research on topics for you to have your own opinion and gives you an insight of history on a fun but critical way. By far one great professor Ive ever had taken!

For me, this class was not enjoyable. There were a lot of lectures that I couldnt gain anything from, and most lectures turned into stand up comedy. Of course, its fine to have a break and home around with students, but not when it interferes with learning. I didnt enjoy this class, and lost my passion for history due to it.

Professor Horton was a great professor, especially for a dual credit class of high schoolers. Any obstacle in the way Professor Horton always tried to work with you to help. There are a lot of notes, but if you listen during the lectures he lets you know how much attention to give each area. Pay attention during lectures and study youll be fine

Mr. Horton is the best professor I've ever had. He's super engaging with his lectures, and he makes his classes super fun. He's also super caring, and he genuinely cares about your well being. He makes it easy to prepare for the tests, and he gives good feedback on assignments.

The material is clearly presented, and the course is well-organized, making it easy to follow along even for those who aren't history buffs. Professor Horton has a relaxed and engaging teaching style that makes the lectures feel approachable and interesting. The assignments are straightforward and manageable, and the overall workload is reasonable.

Mr. Horton was a great professor, very understanding, and the work wasn't difficult, just sometimes challenging in terms of how much you had to write. My one criticism is that he would vocalize his personal political opinions too much. But still a great class that I know I learned a lot from

Professor Horton was outstanding! I learned more with Him in a semester than I have during my 4 years of High School. I appreciate his love for History and the way he engages with the class. You can tell he has a passion for teaching! He has to be one of the best Professors I've come across at TCC, would take again with no hesitation!

I loved taking Professor Horton's online class! He posts many lecture videos to watch (and it can be a lot of content at once), but his structure is very clear, and you can tell how passionate he is about history. I highly recommend him as a professor if you want a deep dive into history, easy assignments, and a professor who loves what they teach.

He is really good as a teacher, his classes are not that easy, but if you do your part it goes simple, I know that as a history enthusiast I might not be the best person to give an objective review but I can tell that I learned a lot in his class.

I HIGHLY recommend this professor if you find U.S. history interesting and if your attention span is really low. Be prepared for the amount of dad jokes he will make. There's not a lot of homework/ assignments and you are allowed to use your notes or the PowerPoints for extra help. This professor taught me many things I didn't know originally.

I took Prof. Horton's class during high school as a part of TCC Dual Credit program. He obviously cares about what he is teaching and wants to make sure that his students understand US History to the fullest. It's lecture heavy, but he does his best to make sure class isn't boring and makes an environment where it is okay to ask questions.

He's an amazing teacher. Be sure to engage in class because you will never find a teacher like Mr.Horton where he truly wants to teach his students about the history of the U.S. The assignments are not too bad and you have a lot of time to complete and is very interesting to complete.

Make sure you read / watch / study all materials and you will definitely pass. ALWAYS do the study guide as it is usually the same as the test. If you don't do the study guide you will fail. Take effort in discussion posts and actually think about what you write. If your discussion is post is well written, you may get extra credit!

I took his 5 week course online. He provides all material you need to study and pass the exams and quizzes.The exams have about 60 or so questions but most of the information can be found in the class materials such as power points, and reviews. EASY class IF you read the material. Organized, and communicative. HIGHLY recommend.

Very easy and funny class. If you read the notes, you could probably skip the lecture, as he provides very helpful quiz reviews and non-timed, open-book/note/Google tests. As long as you communicate 30+ minutes before the due date, he is very lenient; less than, and it's all on you. He is a bit forgetful, may have to remind him to open next unit.

His Lectures are long & boring, you can tell his political standpoint through the random, & most times inaccurate, political facts he focuses on during lecture. I stopped going to his lectures & was doing everything online because NONE of the stuff he rants abt in lecture is relevant to our assignments. But the tests were exactly like the review

Professor Horton is kind and lighthearted. He is always making jokes in lecture, and he makes history actually interesting. Instead of focusing on just the simple facts, he goes into depth. Reviews are copies of tests/quizzes. He will give you extra credit for an assignment or postpone the deadline if you email him beforehand that you can't do it.

He is a man who seeks the truth about our Nation's History and will povide you with facts. If you want to know the truth about how America was built, then I recommend you sign up with Horton. He taught me things that actually matter and things that helped me change my mind on certain topics. He will open your eyes on wars that made the difference.
